To export documents such as invoices and credit notes to FinancialForce Accounting from SCM, each item master record must be associated with an SCM product group. SCM product groups are linked to Salesforce products. You can create new product groups on the Codes tab.
Here is a description of the fields and buttons that SCM Accounting Connector adds to the Product Group object. For more information about the fields and buttons included in SCM,
| Field | Description |

COGS Cost of Goods Sold Account |
COGS GL Account to be associated with this product group. If this field is not populated, the SCM Account on the GL Account record is used. |
| Dimension Dimensions are an optional element of some accounting codes in FinancialForce Accounting. They also form part of a FinancialForce Accounting chart of accounts. You can use dimensions to analyze the activity in your business. For instance by cost center, project, employee or any other aspect of business important to you.
Each time a sales invoice is created, you can sub-analyze both the invoice total and the individual lines by any of your dimensions. 1 |
